England create EMBARRASSING record, become 8th quintet to concede more than 100 runs in same innings

England has bagged an embarrassing record on Day 4 of the 3rd Ashes Test at WACA, Perth. Trailing 0-2 in the ongoing series, England is on the verge of an Ashes loss. England, to their discredit, notched up a record they will not be proud of. The English quintet became the 8th in Test history to concede in excess of 100 runs in the same innings. Interestingly, Stuart Broad and James Anderson have featured twice on this list. It was also the third time that English bowlers achieved the unwanted record.They bowled long spells as the Australian batsmen really played well.

Pacer Stuart Broad was the one who bore the brunt of the Aussie attack. In his 35 overs, he gave 142 runs at an economy rate of 4.06 — that is considered expensive in Test cricket. Craig Overton was the other bowler who was taken for a ride as he gave way 110 runs in 24 overs at a rate of 4.58. However, he did manage to pick up two wickets.
